The Rise of Dragon Son-in-Law

"I'll kill you right now."

Long Chen was furious, wanting to chase after Wang Dong.

"Long Chen, if you dare to chase after him, we're really done for," Li Yuechan exclaimed.

Hearing these words, Long Chen stopped in his tracks.

Having married into the Li Family for over a year, Long Chen had long been moved by Li Yuechan, who was exceptionally outstanding in every aspect.

Seeing Long Chen stop, Li Yuechan quickly snatched the fruit knife from his hand, still shaken.

"I didn't expect you to be this impulsive," Li Yuechan said through gritted teeth, disappointment filling her eyes.

"Yuechan, I'm sorry, I couldn't control my emotions," Long Chen said with a bitter smile.

"Long Chen, you damned fool, now that you've hit Wang Dong, Wanxing Group will definitely take it out on the Li Family. That big project at the Wanxing Mall is probably going to fall through. You just wait, I'm going to call Yuechan's father to come back and deal with you," Han Min cursed as she walked over to the other side to make a phone call.

Li Yuechan stared at Long Chen and said sternly, "I know Wang Dong's behavior made you uncomfortable, but there was absolutely no need for violence. This is a society governed by law, and physical confrontation won't solve problems; it will only complicate things further. You could end up in jail, do you understand?"

Long Chen, seeing the lingering fear in Li Yuechan's eyes, couldn't help but reach out and hold her hand. Just as he was about to speak, Long Chen suddenly looked perplexed.

Because Long Chen found he could suddenly see through Li Yuechan's body and discern her condition with a single glance.

This ability stemmed from Long Chen awakening his Dragon Bloodline and inheriting the Medical Immortal Treasure Manual.

"Yuechan, are you on your period? Does your stomach hurt? I'll go get you..."

"Shut up!" Li Yuechan immediately erupted in anger. "I'm trying to have a serious conversation with you, and you're going off on a tangent, trying to infuriate me to death, aren't you? Get lost, disappear from my sight right now."

Long Chen also realized that what he had said was inappropriate.

He sighed and said softly, "Don't be angry, I'll just leave. I'm going to check on my grandfather's condition, call me if you need anything."

With that, Long Chen quickly left the house.

In the distance, he could barely hear his mother-in-law's cursing, but he didn't pay too much attention, eager to return to his grandfather's place to treat him.

Long Chen, having received the Medical Immortal's legacy, was confident he could cure his grandfather.

But what he didn't know was that his grandfather had passed away half a month earlier, the day Long Chen had fallen unconscious, and Li Yuechan hadn't had the chance to tell him.

Walking far from the Li family villa, Long Chen hurriedly made his way down the street, realizing he could diagnose any passerby's illnesses with just a glance.

This excited Long Chen immensely!

With the Dragon Bloodline and the Medical Immortal Treasure Manual, these two heaven-defying abilities complementing each other, how could he not achieve great success?

The more Long Chen thought about it, the more excited he became, until he accidentally bumped head-on into a woman walking toward him.

Hiss.

She immediately inhaled sharply with pain, rubbing her forehead.

Long Chen, however, felt nothing and quickly apologized, "Sorry, it was my fault."

"It's... it's okay."

Her voice was gentle, showing no anger.

When she lifted her head, Long Chen realized that the woman had a perfect oval face and a breathtaking figure that set off daydreams unlimited.

Even though Long Chen was used to Li Yuechan's peerless elegance and had developed a strong immunity to ordinary beauties, he couldn't help but be dazzled.

"Are you staring at me because I'm very beautiful?" she said with a charming smile, retracting her hand from her forehead. The bump wasn't too severe, and it didn't hurt much anymore.

Long Chen smiled and said, "You are quite beautiful, but not as beautiful as my wife."

"Okay, just be more careful when walking in the future, don't bump into anyone again. Goodbye!"

"Wait, I haven't finished speaking," Long Chen stopped her.

"What now? You're not going to ask to add WeChat and have an affair or something, are you?"

A delicate beauty with a mysterious smile that was not quite a smile.

"It's not." Long Chen said, "I've hurt you by bumping into you, and to express my apologies, I can treat your illness."

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

"You have a serious cervical spine condition, and I can cure it for you. Here, let me leave you my number. Call me later. I have to go see my grandfather now."

Without another word, Long Chen took her phone and saved his own number in it.

Afterwards, Long Chen hurriedly left.

"Could it be that I encountered a master today? How interesting."

The delicate beauty watched with interest as Long Chen's figure receded into the distance.

...

Long Chen rushed back to his grandfather's place, only to find it deserted, with no sign of Long Xue'er or his grandfather.

This sent Long Chen into a panic, and he immediately called his sister, Long Xue'er.

"Xue'er, where have you and Grandpa gone?"

As soon as the call connected, Long Chen asked anxiously.

"Brother, Grandpa passed away half a month ago."

"What?"

Long Chen felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

"Brother, Grandpa passed away peacefully. Don't be too sad.

He told me to tell you before he passed that even if the sky falls, you should never leave the Li Family. Whether to heed Grandpa's words is up to you. Knowing you're okay will let me rest assured."

Long Xue'er said.

"Xue'er, what... what do you mean with those words? Where are you?"

"I went out of the province with a girlfriend to start a business. Brother, don't worry about me. I can take care of myself. When I return, I'll repay the money Sister-in-Law borrowed for us. I won't let you lose face," said Long Xue'er.

"Li Yuechan paid off our debts?"

"Yep, more than two hundred thousand. She paid it all. She also took care of Grandpa's funeral arrangements and even wore mourning clothes on your behalf. Sister-in-Law may seem cold and detached, but I think she's pretty good."

Long Chen's heart was a mix of complex emotions as he listened to his sister.

"Where is Grandpa's grave?"

"In the back ridge."

...

After hanging up the phone, Long Chen went to his grandfather's grave alone. He sat there from dawn to dusk, and from dusk until morning again.

Childhood memories, like ferocious primordial beasts, swept through Long Chen's mind and heart.

As a child, he followed his grandfather around, farming the mountains and cutting grass after school.

Back then, he looked forward to growing up, always feeling that once he was grown, he'd be able to do whatever he wanted, free and unhindered.

But now, staring at the solitary grave in front of him, Long Chen came to the sudden realization that the happiest and most blissful times had been mercilessly stripped away by the passing years.

"Grandfather, please forgive your grandson for his unfilial ways. I'll come to visit you when I have time."

Long Chen kowtowed three deep bows and stood up with a determined light in his eyes.

From now on, he would no longer need to be timid and cautious.

Long Chen made his way back to the Li Family. As soon as he entered the house, half-eaten apple suddenly flew his way.

With the Dragon Bloodline awakened, Long Chen's reflexes were now over ten times faster than before, and he easily dodged it.

Looking up, he saw that his father-in-law, Li Shiqi, had thrown the apple.

Li Shiqi pointed at Long Chen, his face livid with rage, and bellowed, "You still have the face to come back? Do you know how much trouble you've caused?"

"Dad, let's talk this through calmly, please don't get worked up."

Li Yuechan hurriedly pleaded.

"The Wanxing Group's project at the mall fell through, it's all this bastard's fault. I've had it with talking to him. This damned brat, I'm going to beat him to death today."

Li Shiqi grabbed a wooden stool, his eyes blazing with fury.
